After Transmigration, The Yandere’s Kiss Extends My Life

Chapter 68 Baby

As soon as Yan Mu opened her eyes, she felt comfortable and refreshed from head to toe.

Her nap had actually lasted until the next morning.

The pain she’d felt yesterday was like a dream, disappearing with the setting moon.

The weather was bright and sunny today, and the white clouds looked as soft as cotton candy.

Golden sunlight spilled into the room, dispelling the slight chill of the autumn morning and brightening up the whole house.

Yu Yuan was already up, and seemed to be practicing with his sword in the courtyard right now.

Yan Mu drew the curtain and sat before the mirror, then carefully removed the bandages from her face.

Sure enough, her skin under the bandages was fine, smooth, and fair, with a healthy glow.

She also removed the bandages on her body.

Sure enough, the wounds on her body had also healed.

Since her body didn’t hurt anymore, Yan Mu was very happy.

However, hiding the fact that she had fully recovered was also something that would require a lot of effort.

Yan Mu sighed, and she could only clumsily put the bandages back on again.

She opened the door and went to the courtyard.

Sure enough, the teenager was practicing with his sword in the courtyard, his body was strong and healthy, and his moves were swift and fierce.

The silver longsword had the aura of a dragon as it moved through the air.

Although Yan Mu didn’t know swordsmanship, she still found the teenager’s movements natural and unconstrained2行云流水 (xíngyún-liúshuǐ) – lit. moving clouds and flowing water (idiom); natural and unforced, extremely smooth and beautiful.

She stood under the eaves and watched Yu Yuan quietly.

The osmanthus and chrysanthemums in the small yard had all bloomed.

The osmanthus were of the golden variety. They had a large number of flowers, and their scent was strong and sweet; among the chrysanthemums, there were both edible3杭白菊 (háng báijú)

How it looks like:
and ornamental types.

A light breeze blew, and the petals of the chrysanthemums fluttered to the ground.

The teenager’s clothes brushed up the petals on the ground. With a slash of his longsword, he actually cut a petal in two.

As expected of the male lead I wrote, Yu Yuan is really too handsome.

Yan Mu was inescapably immersed in the beauty of the teenager.

She watched as the teenager put away his sword and quickly walked towards her.

“Why are you up?” Yu Yuan asked with concern, before Yan Mu could say anything.

“After sleeping, I felt like my body was much more relaxed, so I got up and walked around,” Yan Mu said.

“Then I’ll apply medicine for you.” The teenager pulled Yan Mu towards the room as he spoke.

“No, no, no,” Yan Mu hurriedly refused. “I already applied it by myself.”

Yu Yuan halted and turned his head to look at Yan Mu.

“Did you also apply medicine to the burns on your body yourself?” He lightly asked.

“……Mmm,” Yan Mu nodded.

She was somewhat apprehensive. Since Yu Yuan’s so smart, he’ll certainly be able to realize that something’s wrong after he thinks about it carefully.

If Yu Yuan doesn’t believe me and has to check for himself, what should I do then?

Yan Mu’s heart was a mess.

She’d simply wrapped the bandages around most of her face, so Yu Yuan couldn’t see her look of unease, only her sparkling, black eyes.

“Since you already did it yourself, then I don’t need to help you.” Surprisingly, Yu Yuan believed her.

Yan Mu was indeed a little surprised.

She raised her head and carefully observed the teenager’s expression.

The teenager’s eyes were lowered, seemingly lost in thought.

Yu Yuan was so easy to convince, and Yan Mu wasn’t used to it.

“You can ask Hua Ping to go back. My body is recovering well, so you don’t need to bother her to help take care of me anymore,” Yan Mu said.

“Okay,” the teenager nodded calmly.

Looking at the teenager’s ever calm composure, Yan Mu’s heart inexplicably felt a little uncomfortable.

“You…… don’t you want to ask me anything?” Yan Mu suppressed the trace of discomfort in her heart and asked tentatively.

“Does Ah Mu want me to ask something?” Yu Yuan’s eyes were pitch-black, and he slightly raised his eyebrows at her.

“No,” Yan Mu laughed awkwardly. “I just wanted to ask…… what should we eat today.”

She stiffly changed the topic.

A hint of a smile flashed in Yu Yuan’s eyes, and he asked, “What do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you.”

Yu Yuan wasn’t good at cooking, but he could pay for it.

Yan Mu couldn’t cook either. All the pastries in the bookstore were worked out by the imperial chefs themselves after she told them the recipes.

Other than Father Yan, Yan Mu had only cooked for one person since she was a child.

That person was Yu Yuan.

In the other world, her mother was always busy because she was raising her child by herself.

Hence, although her mother was the closest person to her, she’d never eaten the food that Yan Mu had cooked.

In the past, Yan Mu and Yu Yuan had relied on takeout to solve their need for food.

But this time, Yan Mu’s heart was a little uncomfortable, so once she heard these words, she interpreted them differently.

“But, I want to eat your cooking……” Yan Mu lowered her head and said a little discouraged.

“My cooking?” Yu Yuan seemed a little surprised, “Why do you suddenly want to eat my cooking today?”

“Because, you’ve eaten my cooking, but I’ve never eaten your cooking,” Yan Mu muttered. “That’s not very fair.”

Yu Yuan was stunned, not expecting this reason.

Seeing Yu Yuan stay silent, Yan Mu softly said, “If you don’t want to then forget it.”

She moved towards her room somewhat dejectedly.

“Wait.” The teenager gently tugged at the hem of her clothes and seriously asked, “What do you want to eat?”

Yan Mu paused her steps and turned around, a little surprised.

Yu Yuan’s expression was extremely sincere, he didn’t look like he was joking.

“Wuu……” Yan Mu thought it over.

Actually, she wasn’t hungry. The reason why she’d said she wanted to eat Yu Yuan’s cooking just now was because she was unhappy.

Suddenly being asked what she wanted to eat, she really couldn’t think of anything.

Yan Mu reacted very slowly and thought for a long time before saying, “It’s almost mid-autumn, I want to eat brown sugar mooncakes4How it might look like: .”

Brown sugar mooncakes, she ate them before in Shanxi when she was in college, and they seemed to be a specialty mooncake that were only available in the North5Northern part of China.

This mooncake was different from the small and exquisite mooncakes from the South, they had the boldness6豪爽 (háoshuǎng) – outspoken and straightforward; bold and uninhibited; forthright and generosity of the Northerners.

The mooncakes were extremely big, as big as a man’s face, and were mostly made by the elders of a family themselves.

The skin of brown sugar mooncakes were either crispy or crunchy, and there was only a thin layer of brown sugar as the filling, but some people would stuff various kinds of nuts inside.

Unfortunately, ever since she graduated from college and left Shanxi, Yan Mu hadn’t been able to eat them.

Back then, when she was writing the novel, she really wanted to eat brown sugar mooncakes, so she simply wrote a scene highlighting the male lead’s exceptionality and vigilance—— The Eldest Prince hid a slip of paper in a brown sugar mooncake to pass on intelligence to the guards outside the palace, secretly plotting to assassinate Chu Cong.

Everyone was unaware of it, except Yu Yuan, who noticed the anomaly and intercepted the note.

So, in this world, food such as brown sugar mooncakes existed.

After speaking, Yan Mu secretly looked up and glanced at Yu Yuan.

Yu Yuan’s face didn’t look displeased, but he said, “Although brown sugar mooncakes are delicious, they can’t be eaten as a meal. Think of a few more things, I’ll make them together.”

……I’m afraid you won’t be able to.

After all, Yan Mu hadn’t written about Yu Yuan’s cooking skills back then.

But seeing Yu Yuan full of vigor, she couldn’t bear to say that out loud and dampen the teenager’s enthusiasm.

So, she simply asked for scrambled eggs with shallots and baby cabbage7娃娃菜 (wáwacài) – a kind of small tender pakchoi; baby Chinese cabbage (mini-sized variety)

How it looks like:
with garlic.

“Only these?” Yu Yuan seemed to find it too simple, “Ah Mu, you don’t want to order more?”

“Only the two of us will be eating. We don’t need so many dishes,” Yan Mu said.

Green River Bookstore and Restaurant Baoyue had an arrangement, so the workers in the bookstore had meal vouchers, and could have free meals during work at the restaurant.

“Alright then, wait for me, Ah Mu.” Yu Yuan seemed to be very eager.

He rolled up his sleeves and entered the kitchen.

Yan Mu sat on the swing in the courtyard while waiting for Yu Yuan.

The autumn breeze was slightly cool, calming Yan Mu’s agitated mind.

She held her forehead.

She began to feel like she was being childish, she wouldn’t have thrown a tantrum like this in the past.

In the past, she’d always treated Yu Yuan as her “child”, and always “doted” on him.

But today, she didn’t know what was wrong with her, she was actually unhappy because of such trivial things.

She knew she liked Yu Yuan.

But she didn’t expect that love would have such a great effect on a person, so great that it could make them lose their reason.

Yan Mu had a headache.

The small kitchen in the bookstore was newly renovated, and the interior was designed with a minimalist style that Yan Mu liked.

She was really afraid that Yu Yuan would blow up the kitchen.

When the time came, she would be the one responsible for overseeing the master craftsmen to fix the kitchen.

She raised her foot and was about to go to the kitchen to persuade Yu Yuan.

However, billowing black smoke was currently coming out of the kitchen.

……

Yu Yuan wouldn’t really blow up the kitchen, right?

Shocked, Yan Mu quickened her steps towards the kitchen.

Before she could walk in, Yu Yuan came out with a pot of some pitch-black thing.

His handsome and fair face was smeared with a lot of black soot, but  his eyes were frighteningly bright.

“Ah Mu, look, I made it!” Yu Yuan’s face was calm, but the tips of his ears were slightly red.

Is Yu Yuan……asking for praise?

Yan Mu hesitated for a moment, then reached out her hand that was wrapped like a mantou and gently patted Yu Yuan’s head.

“Awesome,” she exclaimed insincerely8言不由衷 (yánbùyóuzhōng) – to say something without meaning it (idiom); to speak tongue in cheek.

This scene gave Yan Mu a subtle sense of double vision, as she kept feeling like a tail was wagging behind Yu Yuan. 

Yu Yuan’s eyes got even brighter.

But his face still remained calm. An ordinary person wouldn’t have noticed that Yu Yuan was happy, but Yan Mu had a deep understanding of him.

The corner of Yan Mu’s mouth twitched slightly.

Not wanting to discourage the teenager’s enthusiasm, she was about to take a spoon to scoop up a piece of pitch-black egg and stuff it into her mouth.

But Yu Yuan stopped her.

“Ah Mu, wait. This color doesn’t look good, wait until I’m done cooking the baby cabbage,” Yu Yuan frowned and said.

Actually, Yu Yuan was a little apprehensive inside.

He’d held swords and knives with these hands, but never a spatula.

He was about to go back to the kitchen to continue cooking, but was stopped by Yan Mu.

“No need, baby9宝贝 (bǎobèi) – darling, you’re already great,” Yan Mu lied.

“Ah Mu, what did you just call me?” Yu Yuan was dumbfounded.

“……” Yan Mu was also dumbfounded.

When she was back in modern times, talking with her best friend, they would always call each other “baby”.

After clarifying her feelings for Yu Yuan, she accidentally called it out.

The tips of Yan Mu’s ears turned red.

She turned around and walked towards her room.

However, Yu Yuan was fast enough to step in-between Yan Mu and the room. 

“Ah Mu, call me that again.” The teenager looked sincere, and his tone was slightly pleading.

His handsome face was extremely close to Yan Mu, so close that her heartbeat somewhat quickened.

The teenager’s face slowly approached, and Yan Mu could feel the critical beauty hit become increasingly powerful.

She looked at his handsome face, and slowly reached out her hand like a sailor compelled by a siren.
